I take no joy in seeing NASEM get hit by the DEI police. The National Academies failed their members but they also failed themselves. The strategy to avoid detection by opting out of their responsibility to defend their fields was cowardly, naive, & antithetical to their purpose. It makes me sad.

Everyone is already a target, whether you speak up or not. So, institutions, consider speaking up.
This has been true for centuries. So people might as well speak up now or foever hold their guilt and regret.
There is money on the table.
